Evaluating the radiosensitivity of the oral microbiome to predict radiation-induced mucositis in head and neck cancer patients: A prospective trial

Evaluating the radiosensitivity of the oral microbiome to predict radiation-induced mucositis in head and neck cancer patients: A prospective trial

Background: Predicting the occurrence and/or severity of oral mucositis (OM) before commencing radiotherapy (RT) remains very difficult. The aim of this prospective trial was to investigate whether the ex-vivo radiation sensitivity of oral keratinocytes from head and neck (H&N) cancer patients c...
